A LOAN FOR EVERY NEED
Conventional Fixed Rate Mortgages

With a fixed-rate mortgage, you know exactly what your monthly principal and interest payments will be for the life of the loan. Your interest rate is locked in and you have the option of several different payment terms. It's a perfect solution if you plan to stay in your home for a long period of time and feel more comfortable with the stability of a fixed rate.

We're here to answer any questions and help open the door to your new home. Call a Jefferson Bank lending specialist today at (210) 736-7700.

Apply now.

 

Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM)

With an ARM, interest rates can be locked in for a period of time. After the term expires, your rate adjusts either up or down based on the financial index associated with your particular loan. An ARM may be the right solution if you plan to be in your home for a short time or want to take advantage of a lower, initial interest rate.
